For early childhood and elementary students requiring before- and after-school care, Lakota is proud to offer transportation to and from area daycare providers.

While this service currently extends to only those centers located within a student’s assigned attendance zone, we are expanding those parameters to accommodate students whose daycare providers now fall outside the recently revised attendance zone boundaries. By utilizing existing routes, we can accomplish this at no added cost to the district.

Many daycares also provide their own transportation to schools not serviced by Lakota busing. Parents are encouraged to contact their daycare provider for more details.

Transportation / Child Care Form

Transportation for all students is based on the home address listed in our student database. If your child will be needing transportation to or from an address different than their home address, please remember to complete a new Transportation/Child Care Form
(opens in a new window) with current information. All alternative transportation plans are automatically cleared at the end of each school year, so please complete the form before each school year.

Please honor the following deadlines to receive transportation for the upcoming school year, beginning on the date indicated:

All forms will be processed within 48 hours.

Please DO NOT put your child on a
bus or assume that the change is in effect until you have been notified
of the approval. Once approved, the Transportation Department will fax
the confirmation back to your child's school and you will be notified.

Exception One Time Change of Bus or Stop

Students are
assigned to ride particular buses and to be picked up and dropped off at
specific bus stops. For students’ own safety and security, they may not
change buses or stops without a permission slip signed by the parent and
approved by the principal or designee.

This permission form must be
presented to the driver of the bus the student will ride. Permission to
change buses or stops will only be granted in special and unusual
circumstances. Please remember that requests to ride a different bus for
social reasons cannot be honored.
